Trademark registration for Savage Maid brand Formosa Oolong Teas

Title: Trademark registration for Savage Maid brand Formosa Oolong Teas
Description: This logo for an American coffee and tea brand, Savage Maid, depicts a stereotypically dressed and tattooed indigenous Taiwanese person. Though it was created before the Japanese took control over Taiwan (1895), such an illustration inherently demonstrates existing conventions about native peoples as a whole.
